Urawa Reds will take on Al Jazira in the next round of the Club World Cup after Romarinho's goal downed Auckland City.
Al Jazira edged to a battling 1-0 win over Auckland City in the first round of the Club World Cup on Wednesday, moving a step closer to a glamorous meeting with Real Madrid.
Romarinho drilled Al Jazira in front after 38 minutes, starting the move himself on the left wing and then finding the bottom-right corner from 20 yards, and the goal proved to be the winner.
The New Zealanders should have equalised after 74 minutes when Cameron Howieson's low left-wing cross found Ryan de Vries six yards out, but he fired a tame effort straight at goalkeeper Ali Khasif.
